SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the conversion of an OpenAPI specification into a production-ready frontend integration, generating type-safe API clients, TypeScript types, and server-side data fetchers that replace hard-coded mocks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-generates API client code (frontend/lib/api-client.ts) and TypeScript types (frontend/lib/types.ts) from the OpenAPI spec.
  • Creates server-side API fetchers (frontend/lib/api/*.ts) and updates page components to consume real endpoints.
  • Supports rapid regeneration of API surfaces after OpenAPI spec changes and mapping updates from references/frontend-api-mapping.md.

Quick Start

Use this skill to transform your OpenAPI spec at .synnovator/openapi.yaml into ready-to-use frontend boilerplate and integrated data fetching.

Frequently Asked Questions about openapi-to-components

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a typed API client from an OpenAPI spec for Next.js?▼

To generate a typed API client from an OpenAPI spec, this skill parses your specification and auto-generates TypeScript interfaces alongside a type-safe frontend API client. It replaces hard-coded mocks with real server-side data fetchers integrated directly into your Next.js pages.

Do I need a mapping file to convert an OpenAPI spec into frontend code?▼

Yes, converting an OpenAPI spec requires a mapping reference file located at references/frontend-api-mapping.md. This file provides the specific instructions needed to accurately translate existing mock data into functional API calls within your application.

What is the best way to update TypeScript types after changing an OpenAPI specification?▼

The best way to update TypeScript types after an OpenAPI specification change is rapid regeneration using this skill. It re-reads your updated spec and automatically overwrites frontend/lib/types.ts and the API client to reflect the new schema.

Can I use this to replace hard-coded mocks with server-side data fetchers in Next.js?▼

Yes, you can replace hard-coded mocks with server-side data fetchers in Next.js. This skill reads your OpenAPI spec, generates fetcher files in frontend/lib/api/, and updates your page components to consume the real endpoints instead of mock data.

Where should my OpenAPI specification file be located for Next.js API client generation?▼

Your OpenAPI specification file must be located at .synnovator/openapi.yaml for API client generation. The skill directly references this path to parse the schema and automatically generate the corresponding TypeScript types and integration code.
